11.1.5 Policies and policy documents
New for
Domino 6
Policies let you control how users work with Notes. A policy is a document that
identifies a collection of individual policy settings documents. Each of these
policy settings documents defines a set of defaults that apply to the users and
groups to which the policy is assigned. Once a policy is in place, you can easily
change a setting, and it will automatically apply to those users to whom the policy
is assigned.
Domino policies should not be confused with corporate security policies. A
corporate security policy is a set of guidelines and standards used in an
organization to establish and enforce secure information practices.
For more information on organizational security polices, see Chapter 2, “Security
methodologies” on page 43.
You create policy settings documents for these administrative areas:
► Registration: Set default user registration values including user password,
Internet address format, roaming user designation, and mail.
► Setup: These settings are used during the initial Notes client setup to
populate the user's Location document. Setup settings include Internet
browser and proxy settings, applet security settings, and desktop and user
preferences.
► Desktop: Control and update the user's desktop environment or reinforce
setup policy settings. For example, if a change is made to any of the policy
settings, the next time users authenticate with their home server, the desktop
policy settings restore the default settings or distribute new settings specified
in the desktop policy settings document.
► Mail archiving: Control mail archiving. Archive settings control where
archiving is performed and specify archive criteria.
